I have been a county magistrate for ten years. My subordinates insist on giving me a yellow robe.

imperial capital.

A young man in black tights stood calmly not far from the city gate. Next to him was a middle-aged man dressed as a scholar.

"Finally home."

There was a rare hint of emotion in the young man's eyes.

It has been almost five years since I last left the imperial capital.

"Ahem, let's go inside first." The middle-aged man said softly.

When the two of them reached the city gate, they took out two passes and entered smoothly.

As the two walked along, they finally settled in an inconspicuous inn in the outer city.

In the room, the young man casually picked up the tea on the table, poured it into his hands, touched his face, and then took off a human skin mask.

"Okay, military advisor, now that you're in, there's no need to bring this thing with you." Ning Fei said lightly.

Qingzhu on the side smiled bitterly and slowly took off the human skin mask on his face.

"General, it's better to be careful in everything you do. The capital is full of East Factory experts, and they might be sitting on the roof right now."

"Haha!" Ning Fei sneered twice and sat on the chair with great confidence.

"Military Advisor, you are not proficient in martial arts, so you can say such things."

"If you can reach the Sixth Realm, you will understand that in the eyes of a master at this level, no one within a thirty-meter radius can pass by silently."

Qingzhu shook his head helplessly: "It's always better to be careful in everything."

Ning Fei smiled disapprovingly, then took off his coat and tore it open. A map suddenly appeared before his eyes.

"We're already here, and I guess the Dragon Guards are almost there too."

Qingzhu's expression gradually grew heavy. What they were doing now was completely a gamble for the entire nine clans. If they were not careful, the entire clan would be sacrificed to the gods.

"General, let's wait for two more days. It won't be too late to take action after everyone arrives."

"Well, I understand, but let's start making the plan now." Ning Fei said, looking at Qingzhu. Among the two of them, for such things, Qingzhu usually came up with the plan and Ning Fei executed it.

Qingzhu nodded slightly: "Yes, I understand, but we have too few soldiers available."

"Although three thousand men are all highly skilled, how to enter the palace is a major problem. I'm afraid the general needs to find a way to contact the Ning family and see if the Empress Dowager can find a way to cooperate with them."

Ning Fei frowned and thought for a while before he said, "That's not a problem. What really worries me is what to do with the imperial guards in the palace."

"General, there is no need to worry about this. It's just 20,000 imperial guards. I have my own clever plan." Qingzhu said lightly.

Ning Fei looked at the other party with some suspicion. Can Qingzhu deal with 20,000 imperial guards?

Although they have been together for many years, Ning Fei is very clear about Qingzhu's abilities, but he can deal with 20,000 imperial guards with just a wave of his hand. Is this definitely not a joke?

If there were 20,000 soldiers and horses, it might be possible to persuade them to join in the rebellion.

But this is the Imperial Guard. Anyone who can join the Imperial Guard is already a beneficiary of the dynasty, and they will never allow anyone to dare to attack the current emperor.

Needless to say, the combat effectiveness of the Second Imperial Guard is so great that if three thousand elite soldiers were selected from them, they would definitely be able to fight against the Dragon Guards.

"What can you do?"

"General, don't worry about this. Let's look at the next problem." Qingzhu said, his eyes falling on the walls of the imperial capital.

"If the city defense troops led by Xue Zhen hear the news, it will probably only take two quarters of an hour for them to rush to the rescue, so we must make sure everything is settled within two quarters of an hour."

"If that doesn't work, then we have to think about..."

Before I knew it, it was already late at night.

"Even so, our chance of success is only 60%. " Qingzhu said the final words in a hoarse voice, picked up the teacup and took a sip of water.

Ning Fei had a sneer on his face: "Military Advisor, I think it should be 80%!"

Qing Zhu was stunned and looked at Ning Fei in confusion: "General, may I ask where these remaining two chances of winning come from?"

The smile on Ning Fei's face gradually disappeared: "Military Advisor, I will lead the charge in this battle. I ask the entire palace, who dares to stop me? Who can stop me?"

Qingzhu remained silent. Although Ning Fei was very strong, it was unreasonable for him, as the commander-in-chief, to rush to the front like this.

But from Ning Fei's point of view, he was right.

In the whole world, Ning Fei is the only one who is a powerful person in the sixth realm in the whole Daduan.

Of course, there are tigers and leopards hidden in the mountains and unicorns buried in the fields. It is not ruled out that there are hermits who are indifferent to the world and choose to retire.

Even if there really is a sixth-level master in the palace, he is probably no match for Ning Fei.

There is no other reason. If you count over thousands of years, there is only one person who has reached the sixth realm before the age of thirty. There has never been anyone like him before, and it is estimated that there will be no one like him in the future.

"oh, I understand now."

With Qingzhu nodding, it was considered that he agreed to Ning Fei's plan.

-

In the imperial palace, Duanmu Yuanchen sat quietly on a chair, with only Chen Liu following behind him.

But Chen Liu knew very well that there were at least ten people hiding in the night behind him, and the Black Guards were no joke.

"Chenliu, the three states suffered heavy losses in this war. I believe we should reduce taxes appropriately. What do you think is an appropriate amount?"

"Your Majesty, I think three years will be enough." Chen Liu spoke quickly.

Duanmu Yuanchen nodded: "Oh, by the way, according to the date, Jiang Yuan should have been married yesterday."

"That's right, Your Majesty. According to the distance, the people you sent will arrive this morning."

Duanmu Yuanchen pressed his finger and spoke again, "How is Marshal Mu's health? I remember that when he was assassinated by the Zhao Dynasty, it seemed that he left some troubles behind."

"Yes, Your Majesty, but the Zhao Dynasty today is no longer what it used to be. Aside from Zhao Junxuan, who can command large armies, the rest are not a concern."

"I guess Marshal Mu didn't spend much energy on this battle."

"Well, that's good. How about this, after the morning court session tomorrow, you and I will go to Marshal Mu's house together."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

While the two were talking.

Tatata!

A burst of hurried footsteps suddenly sounded, and the two turned around at the same time.

Who would be so panicked in the middle of the night?

Or it could be an assassin, but the possibility is very small. Duanmu Yuanchen must have the Black Guards headed by Lao Hei behind him. It is absolutely impossible for an assassin to come here.

I'm afraid it's something else.

"Xu Ning of the Imperial Astronomical Observatory pays respect to Your Majesty!"

An elderly man knelt on the ground, supported by two children.

Duanmu Yuanchen was stunned for a while. Imperial Observatory?

What are these guys doing here in the middle of the night?

Besides, weren't they supposed to be too lazy to attend to state affairs? Why would they rush to see him in the middle of the night?

"My dear minister, please stand up." Duanmu Yuanchen spoke quickly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Xu Ning didn't even have time to tidy up his clothes, and immediately raised his head to look at Duanmu Yuanchen.

"My dear, please feel free to speak frankly." Duanmu Yuanchen spoke quietly.

Xu Ning took a deep breath and looked at Duanmu Yuanchen with an extremely solemn expression: "Your Majesty, I observed the celestial phenomena at night."

"When Sirius breaks into Ziwei, chaos will surely ensue!"
